Steal Her Style: Gwyneth Paltrow's Preppy Stripes

For this month's first Steal Her Style post, I wanted to share Gwyneth Paltrow's stripes on stripes look. First off, stripes is one of those tried and true prints that stays in style all year long. And secondly mixing prints and patterns seems to be a hot trend this Spring and Summer, so why not mix up your stripes. What makes this look work is the play on light and dark. 

I chose to use Gwyn's look as an inspiration for my outfit, but modified a few things to work for me. The hemline of Gwyn's skirt while gorgeous on her, just doesn't work on my 5'4 frame. It would make my legs appear shorter and so I chose to go with a body con skirt that hit just above the knee.

What I Wore: Sequins + Floral

With Spring in the air and temperatures in the 80's, all I want to do is wear twirly skirts.  And this floral skirt just screams Spring. I'm not even sure how long I've had this skirt, but I do know it's one of my favorites.

 A great floral print skirt is perfect for pairing with stripes. It's a little bit nautical with a feminine flair, and I do have a love for nautical styles. Lastly, throw on a neutral blazer in a similar tone for the evenings when the temperature inevitably drops and the wind picks up.
